Surreal Cincinnati

So, let's say you're walking out of Cianciolo's or the Ohio Book Store - If you're a rather fatalistic fellow with some time to browse, you just may be in luck: MainStreetCaskets.com has a prominent storefront right on Main Street in Cincinnati. This store front is complete with a facing of merchandise out front for curious window-shoppers. A quick perusal of their website shows the value of this little shop (The 'Going Home' for only $899! That price is just insane).

But we all know this already... I'm posting about a more recent development. From the same storefront as MainStreetCaskets.com, you can now also buy scooters. Talk about one-stop shopping - Now you don't have to make two trips! Below is a camera phone picture - apologies for the low quality.BTW, I think funeral-related expenses are priced way too high because there is not enough competition. So, I support developments like this business that helpp open up the market. However, as a store front this is pretty surreal and I'm surprised that it works as a business decision.
